“Yes, It Is Racist”: Michelle Obama Condemns Trump’s Re-Election Campaign
The 45 Lies project has recruited names like Black Thought and Talib Kweli.
Emmy and Tony Winners, TED fellows and independent producers, have created the 45 Lies project. In response to ongoing critiques of President Donald Trump, poets, rappers, playwrights and more are coming together to give their own personal critiques.
“45 lies SO incessantly,” the site’s mission statement reads, “that we’ve become desensitized to his falsehoods which inordinately impact the Black community. Hip Hop culture contains the talent, the reach, and the credibility to “battle” these lies, especially in time to encourage action and dynamic response during election season. #45Lies is an organized and viral campaign to hone and unleash our potential when democracy is literally on the line.”
